\"RearThe American justice system exists to deliver fair and timely justice to those accused of wrongdoing and to their victims. The integrity of the judicial process is the foundation of any enlightened society. That bedrock foundation of our republic will soon be under attack by elected officials and tax-exempt foundations who openly vow to wage \u201clawfare\u201d on our federal courts.<\/p>\n

The assault on the federal judicial system is being led by Luis Gutierrez, who ostensibly represents the citizens of Illinois\u2019 4th<\/sup> congressional district, but has proclaimed himself to be the representative of the nation\u2019s illegal alien population. Gutierrez recently stated that if Donald Trump acts to rescind President Obama\u2019s unconstitutional Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) amnesty program he will consider it to be a \u201cdeclaration of war<\/a>.\u201d In addition, Gutierrez has threatened that if the new president attempts to carry out the laws of the United States and begin deporting illegal aliens, \u201cthen the people he wants to deport should say, \u2018I want my day in court before a judge.\u2019 You have to paralyze the system<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

In truth, the federal justice system is already being paralyzed by deportable aliens and their advocates. More than half of all cases<\/a> pending before federal courts are immigration related and there is a backlog of more than half a million cases<\/a> of people fighting to remain in this country. The prospect of a member of the House Judiciary Committee openly calling upon illegal aliens to further paralyze the federal judicial system if the president tries to enforce the nation\u2019s laws, borders on sedition.<\/p>\n

But Gutierrez will not be waging a one-man assault on the federal courts. He is already being joined in the war against the judicial system by the California Legislature, which has been engaging in its own long-running war on sanity, not to mention immigration enforcement. State Senator Ben Hueso (D-San Diego) introduced the Due Process for All Act (SB 6)<\/a> earlier this month that \u201cwould create a state program to fund legal representation for those facing deportation.\u201d Hueso\u2019s Assembly colleague, Rob Bonta (D-Oakland), has offered a companion bill (AB 3)<\/a> that \u201cwould create state-funded regional centers to train defense attorneys and public defender\u2019s offices on immigration law and the consequences of criminal convictions.\u201d Needless to say, California taxpayers would foot the bill for these services. Similar efforts are underway in New York<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Immigration \u201clawfare\u201d isn\u2019t exactly hurting for cash even in the absence of publicly funded effort to paralyze the federal courts. Last summer\u2019s leaks of a cache of documents from billionaire George Soros\u2019s<\/a> Open Society Foundation (OSF) detail countless millions of tax exempt foundation dollars (from OSF and other prominent groups) already being dedicated to the war against immigration enforcement.<\/p>\n

The undeniable intent of the open borders zealots is to bring the nation\u2019s court system to its knees in order to prevent the duly enacted laws of the United States from being enforced. That challenge to one of the essential pillars of our civilization is an existential threat that must be addressed.
